Surprise # 1... the cable guy that we expected between 12 and 2 came at 11:30... he installed the above modem that gives us cable/phone and LIGHTNING Speed internet... in and out in 15 minutes... we were HAPPY.
Surprise # 2
It's bedtime... we turn out the lights.... AND this is what we see
Bob says "do we have a disco ball?"
I jump out of bed, create a tent from a business card to keep the light off the ceiling. Back in bed the flashing on the ceiling is gone
I say "we don't need the disco ball now but I feel like we are lying on a landing strip..."
see all those lights down the front? they were aimed in the full length wall mirror and our bed was in a spot light.
It was a simple fix, I aimed it in the walk in closet got back in bed and said
"now
If you would like to see amazing wild turkey's got to Montana Girl
This is so funny. We have a similar disco dance floor in the front room!!!
ReplyDeleteOH MY WORD....THAT MUST HAVE BEEN STARTLING AT FIRST..I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN MAD MONKEY IS A CREATIVE GENIUS!!
ReplyDeleteGOOD FIX.
HUGS MADI
PS WE AWOKE TO ICE EVERYWHERE. OUR CAR IS IN AN ICE TOMB THE PINE TREES BOUGHS ARE ICY but WE HAVE POWER SO ALL IS GOOD
Hey, I love this! I need one of those. :-)
ReplyDeleteMy disco ball is hidden behind a curtain in my living room :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you solved the problem but Baby may not be!
ReplyDeleteoh, too funny! you're going to have to watch baby for signs of sleep deprivation. :)
ReplyDeleteWe have that also...but I have a huge piece of decor that hides the light at night. It was very annoying the first night. LOL
ReplyDeleteNothing better than lightening fast connection tho!!
Oh, I can relate! I have a modem in the bedroom, too, and had to just turn it around. It still gives off some light. Then, there is the light on the clock, the telephone, the red light on the power strip on the floor, etc. Why does everything have to have lights? Grrr.
ReplyDeleteGreat for someone who has a baby that will not go back to sleep after the 2:00 feeding. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe tent trick was good! Business cards sure come on handy.
ReplyDeleteFunny! Glad the fix was easy.I hope your internet is "lightening fast"!!
ReplyDeleteWell you said you finally got lightening speed internet. You are getting a trip through the night sky every evening.
ReplyDeleteOur modem etc. are in our office so we don't see the light show. Thank goodness.
I'm envious of your lightening speed internet :) Too funny about the lights. Glad it was an easy fix for you though
ReplyDeleteGood thinking. I'll bet you are enjoying the higher speed.
ReplyDeleteThat would have drove me NUTS! lol I can not stand any light in the bedroom at all! My husband's radio clock has a way to turn off the light on it thank God! Before we had to put something over it because it is too bright for me. I even get distracted from the little red light that is in the smoke detector! We have our modem in the laundry room near the electric box on top of the little freezer in there.
ReplyDeleteOur office in the middle of the night - looks like the aliens have landed!!
ReplyDeleteYou are just too funny! There must never be a dull moment at your house!! Thank your for the send-off to my blog. That's very nice of you.
ReplyDeleteOh the excitement at your home! It must be a riot.:)
ReplyDeleteBring on John Travolta.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great fix, you solved the problem but poor Baby might not get any rest. Our modem is in the back office. I can't imagine having it in the bedroom.
ReplyDeleteI am impressed with the fix but then they do say necessity is the mother of invention. Those flashing lights would keep me up all night.
ReplyDeleteImagine a disco modem producing glittering and charming psychedelic lighting !
ReplyDeleteTell me about your new internet connection... What cable company do you have? Is it really faster? We have our internet through Comcast --and it is pretty good.. But--I always am looking for upgrades..
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Betsy
Glad you were able to fix it, that would be annoying at bedtime!
ReplyDeleteLOL Only you would this happen to. LOL
ReplyDeleteAnd just think if you wanted to disco, you could have done so right in your own bedroom...and it's OK if you don't post photosđź‘€ Sandra
ReplyDeleteCatching up with blogs and feel like i am all over the place lol! Great that you got the new broadband, and the disco light was quite cool. But not while sleeping though.
